Can it really be Christmas again? Well, considering the local shopping centre has been piping the sounds of Slade, Mud and Greg Lake into the ether for at least two months it must be getting pretty close! Anyway, please allow me to wish all you regular blog visitors a truly memorable Christmas. This months music widget starts atomatically so [...]

Can you believe Christmas is almost here? I can’t. Where did the summer go? It’s another year over, a new one just begun and all that. No doubt lots of anglers will be dreaming of getting new rods, reels, poles and accessories amongst their prezzies but the chances are it’ll be slippers and socks again! [...]

This is a bit of an experiment, but it’s one I really hope will work. If it does I’ll be in a position to share my entire back catalogue of articles dating back more than 20 years… The following article was published in David Hall’s Coarse Fishing magazine back in January 1992. At the time there [...]

The old fishing’s started to get a mite tricky in recent weeks. From the heydays and high days of summer when barbel proved as easy to catch as certain mugs on the Internet forums I’m reduced to scratching around for bites.

Since appearing on Sky TV’s Tight Lines programme with Keith Arthur a few weeks ago I’ve received a huge number of enquiries asking me to explain in detail my barbel rigs and bait presentations. It certainly appears the programme made a lot of barbel anglers sit up and think. During the programme some footage [...]

Low water conditions have had an impact on the fishing but that hasn’t stopped Bob giving his chief detractor both barrels. Batten down the hatches as the insults fly!

Isn’t it great to be back on the rivers again? Right now I’m filling my boots with barbel and chub, just because the novelty hasn’t quite worn off yet. I’m also inspired by the fact that they’re just so obliging and happy to feed in what some would have you believe are the worst conditions. [...]

At last the ’real’ fishing season is in full swing again so here’s a bumper edition of the blog for all who love their fishing… I forget to mention in recent blogs that I’ve been enjoying some brisk sport on a local canal where the bream have been quite obliging. The only trouble is I was pig headed [...]

Bob looks back fondly at the good old days of fishing and indulges in a bit of name dropping… Did Team Fishing Ruin Match Fishing? Team fishing was a real eye opener to me. At first I loved it. I was passionate and committed. Fishing for the benefit of others was a revelation. No matter where you [...]

Are Angling Books A Good Investment? A little while back I reviewed Big Carp reprint of Dick Walker’s famous tome in this column. The book’s publishing house, The Little Egret Press, does a fabulous job of reissuing old classics and bringing limited editions to the market by authors who the mainstream press would overlook because [...]
